Rangers release trio of defenders
BBC Sport

Out-of-favour defenders Olivier Bernard, Marvin Andrews and Bob Malcolm have been paid off by Rangers.

The trio are now free agents after negotiating their release from the Scottish Premier League club.

Trinidad & Tobago international Andrews has already reportedly turned down a three-year contract with Reading.

Bernard had been in negotiations with fellow Premiership newcomers Sheffield United, while Malcolm had been in talks about a loan deal with Millwall.

What?? Somebody please confirm whether Dog really turn down Reading.

Dog know what he doing yes. Good luck killa. If it is true, 3 years from an EPL team sound good to me, but the details obviously doh match what the big man wants for himself and his family. We will see where he ends up.

if that's the case, then Football is no longer his priority!!! ah feel he decide to give up on football and do other things which he considers more important. Sad sad sad.

Big Up!

That is supposedly the reason but life is about change and there are plenty Churches in Reading. Even self Glasgow not that far away Dog yuh could return occasionally.

I would not think a Prem side would offer Dog a 3-year contract esp with his stance on surgery etc but Dog you should have really listened to de Lord above and take up that opportunity He bring to you.

Dog you are a loyal warrior so Good luck boss. I hope you know what you doing and that things work out for you.Â

Here's a quote from him a few years ago:

He said: "I have no objections because after a match I go straight to church. And a building is not a church, you are a church.

"I pray in my car, I pray before a game and I pray on the park. So I am the church. Some people have different views about it but I know God is not against me for playing on a Sunday.

"The most important thing is giving God thanks and praise on a Sunday. Every day can be a Sabbath."

Now, to me that sounds like someone for whom Church is the most important thing in life.

I think his church is in Kirkcaldy, a town near Edinburgh. That's pretty far from Reading - about an 8 hour drive. Glasgow would only be 1 - 1 1/2 hours from d church.

Back in his Livingston days (Livingston not far from Kirkcaldy either), the press reported that he turned down a move to Dundee United because he didnt want to move far from his church. Now Dundee is only about 2/3 hours drive from Kirkcaldy. So Reading sounds impossible for him.

trinmac men does want to leave england and go back to italy cause there wife from there and she want to go back home. who are u to judge d man and by the way arent u speculating on why he turned down reading. and still whateve his reasoning is that is his decision. buh allyuh n easy yes

g · « **Reply #18 on:** August 31, 2006, 07:50:53 PM »

Its amazing how people could just cast aspersions based on the least amount of information and facts. We do not know every circumstance and I won't even speculate as to any other reason, as long as the man is at peace with himself and his decisons that is all Â I can ask for him.

He has served Trinidad and Tobago and his domestic clubs Â giving 100% effort in every case.

I wish him the best of luck in whatever his future plans are.

Thank your Marvin

same thing run through meh mind when i read de first post lol

ah know what Preacher going and say but i kinda think is ah waste of his God given talent though, but then again the Lord must be tell him to furget football and spread de Gospel or something.
Whatever Andrews do, we should respect the man decision and beliefs and not ridicule him cause of our own selfish reasons.
This isn't the case of like Theobold, where he fully deserved all the bashing.

very true
yuh does call dat big and yuh have sense
but INMHO the same way he trust in the lord who bless him with the talent to play football and bless the coach who train him, is the same way the lord bless the doctor with the skill to make him better.

to quote a wise men
"The lord doh come he does send."

he might not be able to come and fix yuh he self but he go send ah man, aka, the surgeon.
